Today is my eldest dd's birthday!  She is now a big 7 year old...WOW!  Where has the time flown?  She has sprouted up before my eyes and in so many ways is such a big girl.  In this last year I've seen her progress so much in areas that have been a trial.  Of course, she still has so much to learn and to grow, but I could not be happier with such a darling!

For her birthday, we celebrated on Saturday.  She wanted to go to the Rosicrucian Museum here in our town.  It is an Egyptian museum with a replica rock cut tomb in it.  She loves that part....and the mummies!  I will try to post picks of her and her sister in the tomb later.  I haven't downloaded them yet.  Later that afternoon my parents gave her a little family party at their home.  I am 2 weeks from my due date and just didn't have the energy to deal with a party, so they graciously offered to do it...thanks Mom and Dad!  She had a great time and received some very nice gifts from folks.

Today, we will probably have lunch with Grandma and just have a nice relaxed day.  We have officially started our "break" for lessons.  Since the baby is due soon, we figured we'd take 5 weeks off, except for read alouds and some basic review to keep things in dd7's head.  I will probably do a little research for upcoming curriculum choices for her and her sister. 

Well...Happy Birthday Darling!  I pray that the Lord will continue to grow you and teach you!  May this year be blessed!!
